My little Jack died on Jan. 21. He was the sweetest little orange tabby boy, no bigger than a 6 month old kitten. During his last weeks he was always cold so he always beat me to bed at night and was waiting under the covers for me. Our vet suspects that he had feleuk in his bone marrow but we didn't test him - and on the snap tests he repeatedly tested negative.On Feb. 8th I lost Cheyenne. She was a little Siamese baby - small but not as small as Jack. She was definitely feleuk positive. She came to me at 4 months from a Tx kill shelter -- in fact Gloria and I read about her on this list - and Gloria went to Tx to pick her up along with a great big ol' dlh orange tabby boy, Charlie, who is FIV+ -- and thriving. For the first few weeks I had to make Cheyenne let me hold her - and then one day in my arms she just sighed this big sigh and relaxed and became my sweet outgoing little girl.Then, on Feb 9, Sweet Willie Brown died. He was a tiny tabby when he came to our rescue group - spent his whole kittenhood with one sickness or another and the for the last year and a half was so thin that he looked to be at death's door. He also repeatedly tested negative and our vet suspects feleuk in the marrow. Just a few months ago extensive bloodwork showed nothing but a little anemia and a slightly elevated white count. He finally began to put on weight and I took him to our Board meeting on the 20th to show off how chubby he was. He has always been a favorite of everyone in our rescue group- and he spent the evening sitting on one shoulder and then another. Shoulders were his "thing". I miss that "out of nowhere" feather touch as he landed on my shoulder - have shoulder will pounce.There are now 3 more angels in the heavens and I know they are playing together, all healthy, at the Rainbow Bridge.
